Recycle-a-bike ladies repair night video
I thought this video might interest some of you:
Continuing with our NYC bike month http://bikemonthnyc.org/index.phpcoverage, last week I had the chance to shoot at Recycle-A-Bicyclehttp://www.recycleabicycle.org/in DUMBO, Brooklyn. Recycle-A-Bicycle takes donated bicycles, repairs them and reintroduces them to the community through earn-a-bike programs in schools and sales from their non-profit retail locations. Although their work mainly focuses on environmental education and job training programs for New York City youth, they also host repair classes for people of all ages. Every Tuesday evening after the shop closes, Susan Lindell teaches bike mechanics 101 to women. Check out this video on Ladies Repair Night.
